The battle on an Afghan mountaintop called Takur Ghar featured Special Operations forces from all 4 services and the CIA.

Navy SEALs, Army Rangers, Air Force Combat Controllers, and Pararescuemen fought against entrenched Al-Qaeda fighters atop a mountain.

Subsequently, the entrenched Taliban became targets of every asset in the sky.

According to an executive summary, the battle of Takur Ghar was the most intense firefight American special operators have been involved in since 18 U. S. Army Rangers were killed in Mogadishu, Somalia, in 1993.
